[Date]

2016

Pencil

The illustration was created for my graduation thesis. I illustrated Prešeren's poem "Illegitimate Mother". It shows a stanza where he says that
all the people were “pointing” at her, talking about her, just because she had an illegitimate child. But over time, I started to perceive the illustration differently. It tells us to work with your heart, because there will always be people who will “point” at you. Whatever you do, there will be someone who you will not please. This hinders you from your dreams. Don't pay attention to them and follow your dreams and work with your heart, it took me a long time to really understand this.
